Imran Khan’s sons wanted to tell the world that their father is being persecuted in prison, and the PCB decided to make sure they succeeded by threatening to boycott the match… these fuckers are genuinely hysterical lmao
Pakistan's imprisoned former leader may not survive his imprisonment unless he's given proper medical treatment, one of his sons said. https://t.co/qa06Whhw0K
Imran Khan’s sons have accused the Pakistani government of “blatantly trying to kill” the jailed former prime minister and cricket captain.

پاکستان کرکٹ بورڈ PCB کو سابق کرکٹ کپتان عمران خان جو دنیا میں پاکستان کی بھی عزت کا باعث بنے انکے صاحبزادوں کے انٹرویو پر کہنا تھا چاہیے تھا وہ اپنے عظیم لیجنڈ کے ساتھ کھڑے ہیں لیکن وہ تو الٹا شکایتیں لگاتے پِھر رہے ہیں
Pakistan threatened Lord’s Test boycott after broadcaster Sky Sports telecast interview with Imran Khan’s two sons which was actually recorded at the Lord’s Long Room a day before the Test. PCB wanted SKY not to air the interview during Lunch break else they wouldn’t take the field post Lunch.
The 18-min interview done by Michael Atherton (one of the 21 captains to sign the letter to Pak PM) was shown and Pak did take the field too

Michael Atherton, words cannot express our gratitude for raising voice for Imran Khan especially at a time when even many of his own have chosen to remain silent. Pakistan owes you one.
@Athersmike
i agree that Imran Khan has insane PR, but this ain’t just about PR anymore… cricketing legends are compelled by their conscience to raise their voices for one of their own ‘cause of the treatment Imran Khan is receiving in prison.
